1. A method comprising:
receiving at a user container runtime environment, via a container registry, an image of an obfuscated containerized model of an asset; wherein the obfuscated containerized model comprises an Application Programming Interface (“API”), and wherein the obfuscated containerized model has been generated in a supplier runtime environment located within a supplier network environment,
interfacing, with a model execution logic, the API of the image of the obfuscated containerized model, wherein an interface comprises a process data signal that is transmitted to the API of the image, and a model result data signal that is transmitted from the API of the image; wherein the process data signal comprises data related to usage conditions of the asset, and the model result signal is indicative of the response of the asset to at least some of the usage conditions,
wherein the user container runtime environment is located within a user network environment which is isolated from the supplier network environment.
